# USDA API and MCP

Food nutrient data and US agricultural statistics from the USDA. 3 tools through Agentik.

## Tools

- [USDA FoodData Central food details](/providers/usda/fooddata-food.md)
- [USDA FoodData Central food search](/providers/usda/fooddata-search.md)
- [USDA NASS Quick Stats query](/providers/usda/nass-quickstats.md)

## Questions

### Do I need an account with USDA?

No. Agentik holds the connection to USDA. Your agent calls it with your Agentik key, and each call is paid from your balance at USDA's price.

### Is the data the same as the direct API?

Yes. Each tool is one USDA endpoint with its real inputs. Agentik adds the price check, the balance and the receipt.
